of Mr.. James Parks, of Madison Co /,
crushing the building and killing A
head of horses, The scene of the
strange incident was visited by your
correspondent on Monday yesterday
morning, and carefully examined.
1t is of a crystal clearness and sever
al fish are bound in It's icy embrace.
One is devil fish, an inhabitant of
the deep sea; there are two sword
fish, and four of variety that your
correspondent was not acquainted
with. The shape of the lump is oval ;
the corners are supposed to have
been melted in the descent. This is
the hardest nut the scientists have
had to crack for some time. Hun
dreds of people will go to see the
strange visitor to-day before it melts
away. l will send you a chunk by
to-day's express. From whence came
the ice?
